Fish breath (take in and exchange gasses) by passing water through their gill membranes which do the same job as our lung membranes.

Which structure in fish performs the same function as lungs do in mammals?

In fish, the structure that performs a function similar to lungs in mammals is the gills. Gills extract oxygen from water as it flows over them, allowing fish to breathe underwater. They facilitate the exchange of gases, enabling fish to take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide, much like lungs do in terrestrial animals.
